Perhaps she sat in the inviting chair located by the windows to plan the guest list and address her wedding invitations. She might have lounged among ivory silk pillows as she browsed bridal magazines looking for dresses and flowers.

Julie remarked that the bathroom in this suite may be of special interest. "It's a small room, probably added in the 1950's, that featured hot pink tile around the tub. This major transformation was accomplished without construction because the fixture locations, tub, and vanity remained in place."

"We've retiled and repainted everything but these are basically cosmetic improvements that many homeowners might consider. Even the old oak vanity had a good location in the room so I had it decoratively painted and simply replaced the hardware."
